These calculations will be most accurate when performed for manual transmission equipped vehicles or automatic transmission vehicles with lock-up torque convertors (with the convertor in the locked state). The values for automatic transmission vehicles with "open" convertors can be corrected for slippage by the addition of 200-500 rpm which is typical for quite a wide range of convertors during light cruise to near coast conditions. During hard acceleration the values for unlocked convertor will vary by a wide margin with the locked state only being approximated at maximum RPMs. These calculations also assume a constant wheel radius, which in reality does not occur due to two major factors tire wall sag due to vehicle weight decreasing the effective radius (most apparent in high profile radial tires) which could result in up to a 4% under estimate of RPMs, and centrifugal tire growth (most apparent in drag racing tires) which will increase the effective wheel radius, and hence decrease the RPM values required to maintain the vehicle at a set speed by 1-5%.
